Mixed Insect Specimens for Arts & Crafts | Grade A2/B Seconds | Pack of 12

A thoughtfully curated selection of dry-preserved insect specimens graded A2/B — commonly referred to as ‘seconds’ — these are specimens that fall outside collector-grade A1 standard due to imperfections such as missing or damaged antennae, slightly folded wings, chipped elytra, or other cosmetic irregularities that do not affect the overall form or character of the specimen.

Each pack contains a varied mix of species drawn from our stock, which may include beetles, leaf insects, spiders, scorpions, and other orders depending on availability. While not suitable for formal entomological collections, these specimens are ideal for a wide range of creative, educational, and craft applications.
